The Ancient Mummy's Curse
Gloria
grew up in a family of archeologists; her father was one as well as her
grandfather and great grandfather. In fact her great grandfather had been on
many famous Egyptian digs and had brought back many fine artifacts from these
digs. Growing up she loved to touch and to listen to the exciting stories behind
these artifacts.
One set
of artifacts that her great grandfather had acquired from a dig in Samaria had
captured her interest and when her great grandfather passed he left her the
artifacts.
Gloria
kept the artifacts in a prominent place in her home, where she could admire and
look at them all the time.
But as
Gloria got older into her late twenties she noticed that she began to have a
hard time concentrating and putting words together to make sentences. She went
to many doctors but they could find no medical reasons for her problems. At the
same time Gloria became very active in a church, something that she had
previously not done.
She loved
the camaraderie of the people when they would get together for the young adult
bible studies and soon was having a group of them over to her home.
Many of
her guests were interested in the story behind the artifacts that were in her
home. Gloria loved to tell the stories of the different digs that her ancestors
had been involved in and what each artifact was once used for. One of them drew
the pastors attention, a history buff of Samaria he immediately recognized it as
being from the tomb of Haheshe on of the high priests of the second century. He
also had heard that there was supposedly a curse associated with the disturbance
of anything in his tomb.
Everyone
laughed at the thought of an object caring a curse and the evening ended. That
night Gloria had a horrible nightmare of being locked in a tomb and suffocated
to death. The next day she took the object that the pastor had singled out to a
local psychic who confirmed Gloria’s worst fears, the psychic believed that
the artifact was indeed cursed.
She
agreed to take the item from Gloria in hopes this might help her. She felt that
Gloria’s inability to concentrate and to put words together might be the start
of a curse from her great grandfather’s disturbing Haheshe’s tomb.
Over the
next ten years Gloria tried in vain to get any help for what was soon becoming a
living nightmare to her. Her inability to concentrate or to put words together
escalated into her being dismissed from her job of teaching. Sometimes her hands
and legs did not seem to be part of her own body. If she were cutting vegetables
in the kitchen her hand would take on a mind of it’s own and try to cut her
other hand. Sometimes when she tried to walk in a straight line her legs would
act independently of the other one and make her stagger and walk in circles.
Soon she became to debilitated to leave her home.
She
surfed the Internet in hopes of finding someone that could help her. The local
church that she had attended shunned her. It seemed no one wanted to help her.
This past
fall she contacted us at the Aware Foundation and made arrangements to fly here
from her home in San Francisco. We prayed over her for three days and on the
third day she felt that she was finally delivered from the curse that had held
her captive for so long.
We have
since heard from her and she is doing much better. She has moved from her home
in San Francisco to the outskirts of Las Vegas. She has gotten rid of all her
artifacts that she had inherited from her ancestors and has found a teaching job
at one of the near by schools and has enrolled in a local church. |
